• Background Information. 141 Lancs. Final Conc. (Record Society of Lancashire and Cheshire), vol.ii, Joan probably was a Dacre. Her husband's gardian had been a Dacre, and the Dacre arms were on the Harington tomb. There is a drawing of the tomb made in 1646 by Daniel King in Dodsworth's MSS, lxxxviii, fo. 20, and from the character of the armour, it is probable that he and his wife are represented by the figures on the Harington.
